Don't really blame the IOC for their decision. Yeah he's a young snowboarder, but the Olympics are a serious thing to a lot of countries. Although our sport is a lot more laid back than others, there has to be a level of respect shown during the games. Taking a medal that dozens of athletes have trained towards for years, and hanging it on your balls to pose for a picture isn't exactly humble or respectful. Punk move on his part, oh well.

eh at least it wasn't during the actual olympics stuff and was at a club or something. I think it was anyway.

Man... I'm not sure if the Winter Olympics are the same* as the Summer Olympics, but if they are that sucks...
Disrespectful and he shouldn't have done it. Don't necessarily agree with the ban, but you have to admit it wasn't a smart move.

*They apparently hand out over 10,000 condoms in the Summer Olympic Village...
